La Liga 23/24 fixtures revealed: The important matches for the upcoming season have now been revealed for La Liga.
This past season saw Barcelona finish first and win the league in dominant fashion. Their defensive record was among the best in Europe, and they are now once again a force to be reckoned with after a difficult few years. Atletico Madrid managed to produce a remarkable run during the final stage of the season to secure a second placed finish. On the other hand, Real Madrid had a lacklustre campaign where they finished third, but won the Copa del Rey.
The teams will now rest for the summer and will return to league action on the first matchday on Friday August 11, 2023.
La Liga 23/24 fixtures revealed: When is El Clasico 23/24 date and time?
The biggest clash in Spanish football now has a date for the coming season. Real Madrid and Barcelona will play each other for the first time on matchday 11, October 29 2023 at the Estadio Olimpico in Montjuic. It will be a home game for Barcelona, who have moved to the Olympic Stadium since Camp Nou is undergoing renovation.
The return leg of El Clasico 2023/24 will be played at the Santiago Bernabeu on April 21, 2024 which will be matchday 32. Such a clash late in the calendar will surely make things more interesting, especially if there are major stakes placed on the result of the big match.
This past season, Real Madrid and Barcelona won one La Liga El Clasico each. Los Blancos claimed the win the first time around, defeating their rivals 3-1 at the Santiago Bernabeu. Barcelona were able to avenge their prior loss with a 2-1 win at Camp Nou which helped them gain momentum en route to their La Liga title win.
